April 28, 2022 – Kroger is opening the doors for new associates to join the company this spring. The hiring event, Saturday afternoon, is part of an effort by The Kroger Family of Companies to nationally welcome 23,000 associates.
“Uplifting our associates and serving our communities are the top priorities for Kroger, and our division is eager to hire new associates who share in our purpose to feed the human spirit and promise to be fresh for everyone,” said Pat McNall, human resources leader for Kroger Central Division. “We have openings for several hundred people in the four states we serve.”
In addition to supporting customers, Kroger will equip people with the ingredients to craft their own recipe for success – both personally and professionally. Many members of the Kroger management team came for jobs with the organization and have made it a career, including the company’s Chairman and CEO Rodney McMullen. He started as a stock clerk.
“After a successful hiring event this past fall, we are looking forward to meeting even more new candidates to join the Kroger team,” said McNall. “We take great pride in providing careers with purpose and promise.”
